Bees Knees Lacquer I A Court of Silver Flames I April 2021

[PR Sample] Hi friends! I have swatches of Bees Knees Lacquer's April Release to share with you all. This is only part 1 of the collection and the second half will drop in May. These polishes will launch on April 30th at noon EDT.     The Crown  Described as the burgundy sister to the Mask and the Harp, this shifts antique gold to green to blue with hints of purple at the extremes. ($13) I found that the burgundy was mostly visible in indirect lighting. In direct lighting, the polish looks mostly gold. The finish of this polish is also similar to Don't Go To Sleep which was/will be released through polish pickup on 04/02. The formula was great; no running, pooling, or staining. It was opaque in two coats and there were some brushstrokes while wet, but they went away as the polish dried. The Mask   Described as a deep cool-toned violet with a subtle gold shimmer that abruptly shifts sapphire and glowing emerald. ($13) The formula was great; no running, pooling, or s...

Bees Knees Lacquer I Fever Quotes I March 2021

  *PR Sample*     Happy Friday! Today I'm sharing the other half of Bees Knees Lacquer's Fever Collection.  This collection was inspired by the Fever series by Karen Marie Moning. This month's release is different because they have broken this collection into 2 parts, Fever Creatures which are Unicorn Pee finishes, and Fever Quotes which are Shimmer finishes. In that spirit, I have broken my post up into two as well. I've already shared my swatches of the Fever Creatures polishes so today I'm sharing the Fever Quotes which are seven beautiful shimmer polishes all of which are great for spring. I also have the new customer appreciation polish which will go on sale in tandem with the Fever Collection. UPDATE: Hope Strengthens, Fear Kills will no longer be releasing this month due to defective pigments so, I have removed the swatches from this post.     The One Who Will Never Let You Die Described as a clover green with blue to purple shimmer ($12). ...

Bees Knees Lacquer I Fever Collection (Creatures) I March 2021

*PR Sample* Happy Tuesday! Today I have swatches of Bees Knees Lacquer's newest offerings. This collection was inspired by the Fever series by Karen Marie Moning. This month's release is going to be a little different because they have broken this collection into 2 parts, Fever Creatures which are Unicorn Pee finishes, and Fever Quotes which are Shimmer finishes. In that spirit, I have broken my post up into two as well. Today I'm starting with the Unicorn Pee Polishes because let's face it, that's what we've all been waiting for!     The Crimson Hag The Crimson Hag is a rich crimson with OG UP (red to green) ($15).  Wowee wow wow wow! This is a beauty! The polish basically applied itself and I didn't experience and kind of running pooling or staining. The Crimson Hag is pretty opaque on it's own. I did three coats and I was happy with the coverage, but if you like to extend the life your polish by using less of it, it should be pretty easy to find a cre...
